Yeah, one of the friends has suggested Pandemic in the past, so when I heard Forbidden Desert was kinda similar, I thought I'd pick it up to try. I'm definitely curious about Pandemic!

5-Minuute Dungeon's a pretty quick co-op game. As the title suggests, rounds only take 5 minutes to play. How it works is that players have to quickly play cards to defeat a deck of monsters, but as everyone's playing at the same time and the clock is ticking, they have to communicate well enough that they don't waste too many cards and lose the game.

5 Minute Dungeon is pretty fun but brutal as hell. Communication and teamwork is a must. We've so far only been able to beat the first 3 bosses due to time and luck of the draw (both our own decks and the door deck)

They just did an expansion on Kickstarter too which adds some new classes and mechanics. Can't wait to try that out.

To the few who play board games here, perhaps someone can help me out.  I know this thread isn't for this type of thing but I need help finding an expansion to a game that we have.

My kids love to play Rail Raiders Infinite and I am looking for the The Good, The Bad, and The Bot expansion.  I know it's not a good game but they like it, so I'm trying to find the expansions to up the number of players.  I managed Old Tyme Religion so we have the fifth player just need the sixth. 

Any help would be appreciated.

We played Rail Raiders Infinite on Memorial Day with 4 players and had a riot. It is a pretty light game and the rules could have been clearer, but I def think that it's better with more players cutting each other's throats. After that game, I wanted to try it at 6 players.

Anyway, I wouldn't be surprised that you can't find it right now, because it's either not released to the public yet or awaiting a reprint of some sort. I'm guessing the latter. I found a post from Ninja Division on Twitter saying the release date for RRI:G,B,B hasn't been announced yet. Perhaps with Origins and GenCon looming, we might see new RRI retail releases.

Ninja Division's original Kickstarter release was missing the extra dice that it was supposed to come with and there was a big to do about it. So I'm guessing the retail release got pushed back a bit to make sure it was all set for retail.

That said, I'm supposed to be working with ND and judging their chibi miniatures painting competition at GenCon. Poke me in the beginning of August, if you haven't found a copy yet and I'll ask them while I'm there.

Wow.  I respect your opinion and all, but Castlevania 64 to me was the worst 3D Castlevania.  Lords of Shadow would be my top pick.

Not going to derail the thread and get into a debate. But I will say that I would replay Castlevania on 64 any time. Lords of Shadow I was done with after 1 play through.

Come on guys, no one has mentioned:

28. Castlevania

The best 3D castlevania game.

You forgot the sarcasm tag.

No sarcasm at all.

Dragon Warrior I & II for GBC is mine!

That gives me a way to play all the Dragon Warrior/ Quest games, finally.

Has anyone connected the pipboy app to their game?

yea, it's super cool.
seems to work pretty precisely
i can't imagine using it without the pip boy, though
very novel

I tried it out with the pipboy on last night. The phone's screen staying on for that length of time made my phone heat up pretty bad tho, and it seemed to eat up a lot of juice. The other issue was text messages and twitter notices popping up in the middle of game play. And without my phone easily accessible it killed me not being able to check it quickly.

Next time I update my phone, I'm going to leave the app as the only thing it's used for. ha

My PipBoy Edition for PS4 from GameStop still says "Open" and they still haven't charged my card. I won't panic until tomorrow though, since the damn thing isn't going to arrive on time anyway.

Any time I've ever preordered a game from Amazon, I don't usually get a ship notice til Sunday. So I wouldn't start worrying just yet.

I preordered mine via GameStop's site, rather than Amazon since they were out of stock. I'm not sure what is going to happen with my order. But last email I got was them telling me they'd be authorizing my payment on the 4th. But nothing's come out of my account yet.

Considering you can't play it in the States unless you import it and a Japanese 360, I'd say ya. ha

Plus my SoulCali IV Hori stick works like a charm with it too. So no funky PC keyboard controls.

Hi

If you go here: http://vgcollect.com/settings

There should be a section titles Pro Settings, listing your expiration date and a dropdown box that says "hide ads" and a yes/no option. If you're not seeing it, give Jason a PM and he should be able to get it sorted for you.
